DinoDash Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 So I already have scorched earth, is it still worth it to buy the season pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalUniverse Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Considering all the problems going..uhh.... not really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassplayer Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I would say no.... WC will find a way to take your cash but then delay delay delay your DLC and when it comes most of the stuff want be there as advertised but will come at some random time ?.

Campi Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Well scorged is 20€ at the moment and the pass is 27€ (in my country at least). If you plan to buy the next 2 expansions as soon as they release i guess the pass will still be cheaper since you can assume those 2 will also be in the 20€ price range at the start.

That's actually different than the prices that I have. Here it's about 36€ for the season pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulta Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 The Season PAss for me is showing 45$ (I do not own SE). It's on sale right now for 30$. Given SE normally is 20$, and I heard owners of SE get an even further discount (dunno if it's true or not), then 'price' wise, it SEEMS like a good deal. But that's only if you plan on getting the other two DLC's on day one no matter what they end up being. Regardless, an even better sale will probably drop at another date, one that's more than 33% hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this price, assuming the price point is the same as SE, it'll be cheaper just to buy the next two expansions straight up. I've already bought the game twice. I'm not keen to buy SE twice too. I would have paid the $30 for the season pass though and felt okay about it. Bummer. Maybe it'll go on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Askew Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Absolutely don't buy it until you have seen at least the first expansion. Giving a company like this money in advance and trusting them to give you something worth that money is extremely illogical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary, if you enjoyed the storyline of The Island and Scorched Earth and liked the content they produced, there is every reason to trust them going forward.

CyanicEmber Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Also my explanation from another thread: You're not buying it again. You're buying a pass for future content. That pass happens to include Scorched Earth if you don't already own it, but it's important that you understand the distinction between a package of three DLCs and a Season Pass. It's a bit of mental loop-de-loop but the logic all checks out. You're still getting a discount as long as you buy while the 33% off is still in effect, it's just smaller for you because you already own some of the content that would normally be included. Essentially, if you were paying for it again, you would have two keys upon purchase, but you don't, and the Steam Store is very up front about that. You only get access to they next two Expansions. Essentially at it's current price you can pay $15 for each of the next two DLCs which is 25% off, or you can pay $10 for all three if you don't own ScE, which is 50% off. Discount either way it's just a matter of the purchase volume shifting the overall discount percentage. Similar to a retail bulk food purchase. Now if on the PS4 and XBox stores there is currently no discount, and until there is I do not recommend purchasing the Season Pass as you would in fact be paying more if you already own Scorched Earth. (But still less if you don't.) At this point I'd say just wait to see if it goes on sale for consoles or else bug the Devs to try and find out if it should be on sale and isn't for some reason.

Graviphoton Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Who knows? Time will tell. I bought it but I have to admit it is gamble because I don't know what I will really got... ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDally Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Same questions were asked when Fallout 4 Season Pass was offered; it ended up being one heckuva deal in the long run. To each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daimon03 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Look from a purely objective point of view no, the season pass isn't worth it. If their planned two more dlc's are each $20 and you buy them both that equals $40. Which is less than $45... With it on special however that's a different story, personally I've bought it.
